Brain monitor may predict easier breathing tube placement in ER

NCT ID NCT07690254

First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study observes whether the depth of anesthesia, measured by a brain activity monitor (BIS), affects how easily a breathing tube can be placed on the first try in emergency room patients. Adults undergoing rapid sequence intubation will wear a forehead sensor, but doctors will not see the readings. The goal is to see if patients who need multiple attempts have different anesthetic depth than those who succeed on the first try.
